Energy Shield (Force Deflector Shield)

Typically, energy shields are some form of force field designed to protect against weapons or elements by deflecting or absorbing their impact. The field is projected along the surface of, or into the space around an object. They usually work by absorbing or dissipating the energy of the incoming attack; prolonged exposure to such attacks weakens the shield and eventually results in the shield’s collapse, making the protected area vulnerable to attack. A number of efforts to design defensive energy fields are occurring in real life. Deflector shield to protect spacecraft that leave the natural defense of the earth’s magnetic field has been invented and is undergoing lab tests. This involves creating a cloud of charged plasma around the ship, which would stop highly charged particles, from the sun or distant supernova, from reaching the ship. The engineering details of how to use this technology on a spaceship must still be worked out
